Any know if we can drop trailers off on Friday after 5pm?? Also, any idea when the SKUSA race will be fit into the Sunday schedule? Certainly not back to back with the regular 125 race, I hope.

I would also like to be there to trailer drop Friday....

As far as the race, I was informed that the 125 race will be the 2nd or 3rd race, then the SKUSA race will follow lunch... so you have about 30-40 minutes.

Tech I believe will be held for those running both classes until afterwards... go figure.

I got a flier in the mail yesturday and for Sunday, it said that the normal 125 is the first race and the SKUSA 125 race is the 3rd race, right after the 1 hour lunch. So you should have 2 hours to prep in between races.

I have no idea what time friday is, threw away my flier. When do you plan on going on Friday Charlie and do you need a crew member for the weekend? I am going to see if Randy or Harold are going. Maybe I will ride with them.

The flyer says that drop-off for Friday is after 6 p.m. and prior to 10 p.m. Tech and registration is open until 10 p.m. on Friday also. Obv., I'd strongly recommend registering and teching on Friday. Camping is also available on Friday. Woo Woo!!!

The SKI photo team (me) will be on hand to snap away.

Have your karts and suits clean and ready for the pages of the magazine.

See you there.

Come on, Deskins! You're going to travel from CA to Mid-Ohio and just take pictures?? Not racing at all??

Be prepared to shoot quick. THe last three years in row, I don't think the Saturday 125 race has gone beyond 15" due to red flags. Strategy gets thrown out the window and its flat out from the get-go because you don't know how long this race will last!.

Dave, will be leaving aroun 1300 on Friday. If you want a ride, let me know.

Randy is done for the year and I won't be going down. That's to early for me, I have to work Friday night. Plus I have a family birthday party. If it's not a wedding, it's something else, right

I may go to Gman this weekend for a day but with the weather report, I can't find a day to go on. Rain all weekend. I may go and do some bench racing though.

I for one, am very excited to be going to Mid Ohio this weekend, and I don't care if it rains and is cold, because a) we have a garage b) we have rain tires and c) I would much rather be at a race track than watching TV any day. See you there!

Ugh. Is anyone else really excited about going down and playing in the cold & wet this weekend? FPPPPT! Like I need that! Isn't there going to be a lot of good racing on TV this weekend?? Hmm.....

But Bill, you forgot d)we're sharing a garage with Charlie & Ted!!!!

PS: I'll be sure to bring all those circlips I've been saving from all the piston changes this year like you asked.

Did have to wack a few with a hammer to get them straightened out.

Bill Pyles · Posted: Thu Oct 11, 2001 4:05 am Post subject: Mid-Ohio-October

Charlie, with the luck I have been having this year, maybe I SHOULD try used circlips for a change...bring 'em on! I'm leaving for the airport. See you tomorrow night.

Actually Charlie, my real reason for being there is to get an actual picture of you to post to these forums.

People really want to know what you look like :-)

For those who want to see a picture of Charlie, I ask WHY?

Good luck to all those going. I wish I could go. Any one want to sponsor me to go down and race. I have a kart but I need brakes, entry money, travel money, and food. I'm a poor college student.

We'll see you there then!

The party is at the T2 RaceKarts garage (#9). Beer, strippers, strobe light, DJ, and disco ball. The whole bit. OK, maybe just beer....
